Chapter 301
"It can't go on like this!"

Lord Mace Tyrell growled angrily.

Although not many people paid attention to him.

Their current location is by the Blackwater River outside King's Landing.

When Stannis knew that his daughter had no chance of coming back, the window for peace talks was completely closed.

Furious, he even ordered the army to launch a counter-charge towards Renly's army that surrounded them.

But his will was not well implemented.

Soldiers on the front lines fought bravely when they clashed with the armies of the Reach.

But when facing Renly's direct lineage troops, it was often reduced to playing tricks on the spot.

Originally, everyone was in the same trench. If two kings had not emerged from one Baratheon family, the two sides would never have fought each other.

This kind of thing, coming and going, will naturally be known by the commanders of both sides.

But, strangely enough, Renly and Stannis didn't seem to see it at all.

There is a kind of tacit understanding in it.

In addition, the River Bend is also responsible for the security issues in the occupied area of ​​King's Landing City.

However, the hungry residents of Junlin City can do anything after breaking through their bottom line.

In the past, the soldiers of the River Bend just didn't dare to walk into those deep alleys.

After all, if you go in whole, it will probably come out as parts.

With the passage of time, even the main roads and "stealing people" under the night are happening from time to time.

The soldiers have gone from being in pairs, to groups of three or four, and now, there are less than ten of them, and they dare not patrol.

There is no way to do this!

Moreover, the army on Renly's side has basically no consumption, and plays with Stannis' army every day.

On their side, casualties suddenly rose.

The nobles complained, and the soldiers' fighting will was like an avalanche.

Even if the Tyrell family gave orders repeatedly, the people below obeyed and disobeyed, just didn't move.

In view of this situation, in desperation, the army of the Riverbend, who had no relationship with Renly, withdrew from the city in desperation.

After they withdrew, there were less than 2 people left in Renly's direct lineage. Facing King's Landing, which was now like a devil's den, they also encouraged Renly to find a way.

Renly wasn't a fat blue man who could pull out solutions from his front pocket.

What can he do?
So, after sending a letter to Stannis, Renly also led his army to withdraw from King's Landing.

The feeling of being stared at every day as rations is too bad, and everyone can't bear it.

Of course Stannis's men knew what was going on.

They didn't just take over the defense of King's Landing directly.

Besides, if 1 people guard such a large King's Landing City, it is tantamount to not defending it.

The Red Fort is a relatively small place, which is more conducive to defense. Moreover, the hungry people in the city cannot enter.

Stannis has food himself, but he can't tell the whole city that he has food, otherwise, these hungry people will immediately become cannon fodder for Renly's army to attack.

Both sides know that this force is extremely powerful, and if they make good use of it, the victory and defeat will be reversed in an instant.

But the problem is, this is out of control at all, who can guarantee that these guys will not bite themselves in turn?

Therefore, the area outside the Red Castle of King's Landing City has actually become a current state of no care.

No one will take over, and if they take over, they will die.

As for the people in King's Landing inside?
Sorry, the high-ranking gentlemen can't see it.

As a result, the current two sides have become a level that is difficult to ride a tiger.

It is impossible to fight, now we will see who can take more time.

Just going back and forth like this, Clay had a good time in the north, but it was calm here.

In fact, Junlin City broke the siege, and after a few city gates were ignored, the Junlin civilians who were finally able to get out ran out like crazy.

The former residents of the capital are now dressed in rags, like refugees who escaped from the battlefield.

They stared resentfully at the crowned stag banners of Renly and Stannis.

The royal banner that once guarded them is now the culprit that has brought them to this point.

It can be said that the name Baratheon has completely stinks the street in the hearts of these people.

But they are soft-spoken and can't change anything.

I can only leave with my family behind me.

Both parties acquiesced in the incident.

After all, no one can sleep well with such a ticking time bomb by his side.

Just as the civilians in King's Landing City were almost evacuated, the Tyrell army also added some soldiers to prepare for the second attack.

The news of the giant dragon burning Star Shuttle City reached the front line of King's Landing.

All of a sudden, everyone was uproarious.

Where is Star Shuttle City?
My hometown, can something go wrong?
What's that about the Peck family?
It was one of the powerful nobles in the Reach.

Even if the current Patriarch is a coward, the army is several thousand strong, which is quite important in this coalition army.

Such a powerful Peck family, within a day...

All of a sudden... gone?

The princes of the river bend bombed the camp at that time.

"Immediately, mobilize our army and head south along the Prince's Pass! Kill the evil dragon and avenge Lord Titus Peake!"

Then word came that Titus Peake had narrowly escaped his life, and the slogan became, Make the Dornishmen responsible for the loss of the Reach, and so on.

What a powerful big country atmosphere.

However, Renly Baratheon, the king who watched coldly, tore the fig leaf of these well-dressed nobles without mercy.

"You guys just want to bring the army back to your castle as soon as possible, and then get some property, or prepare to fight the dragon. In short, you don't have the courage to fight the Dornish people head-on."

He said this very calmly in front of all the nobles at a banquet.

Most of the nobles of the Stormland sneered at the nobles of the Reach with funny expressions on their faces, while the nobles of the Reach whose complexions were slowly turning red loudly refuted Renly's words.

They believe that this is the king's distrust of them.

At the moment, some nobles said that such an army is boring and threatened to leave the coalition with their own army.

Renly hadn't spoiled them one bit.

The king is not threatened.

He agreed with these nobles to leave with their own troops.

In fact, he was powerless to stop them.

He has the power, but not the ability.

He knew very well in his heart that these guys were pawns dispatched by the Tyrell family to test him.

If Renly insisted on launching the Battle of King's Landing after the dragon burned Star Shuttle City, then the alliance between the two parties would not exist in fact.

As soon as these troops left, there was a chain reaction immediately.

Every once in a while, nobles will request to leave the king's army and return to their fiefs.

Renly made no attempt to stop him, nor could he.

He said he was the king, but in fact, the people who could really listen to him were the nobles in the stormlands.

Although they look down on the Tyrell family, these nobles in the Reach will definitely maintain the same position as the Tyrell family on this matter.

After this period of right and wrong, Renly is no longer the silly, white and sweet royal child.

He saw it very clearly, so he didn't stop it at all.

As for the stormy land, he also had similar concerns.

Although the dragon has only attacked the Reach now, the Baratheon family, after all, is the chief culprit in the usurper's war.

There was no way the Targaryen would let them go.

Although Renly was only a child when his eldest brother Robert raised his army.

He had thought of this a long time ago, when Star Shuttle City turned into ashes, he thought of it.

Therefore, the reason why he readily agreed to the betrayal of the people of the River Bend was because he couldn't fight anymore.

He sent a letter to his brother.

"My brother."

"Junlin City, I give it to you."

"I'll let you sit on that iron chair."

"Don't get stabbed in your ass~"

"No way, the Targaryen family is here, I have to go back and protect my Storm's End."

"I've given you the throne, but not the crown."

"When there is a chance in the future, we two brothers still have to decide the outcome."

"I'm looking forward to that day."

"Also: I'm sorry about Celine, I never thought of doing anything to her."

"Burn it after reading it. When this letter doesn't exist, save some face for me."

"King of the Seven Kingdoms, Renly I Baratheon, your brother."

When Mace Tyrell, who was up and running again, finally couldn't continue to perform his set of loyal ministers.

Under Renly's sneer, Margaery Tyrell, who was still a virgin, left the king's tent, and together with her family's army, left the camp that once had a hundred thousand troops.

Among the Seven Kingdoms, the stormy allied forces in the river bend where Mount Tai was once overwhelmed have officially disbanded since then.

Both parties knew that if there were no accidents, the two parties would have no chance to cooperate.

After all, broken mirrors cannot be reunited, and a fruitless war made both sides see many things clearly.

After the Tyrell family left, Renly took a last look at the majestic and dilapidated capital of the Seven Kingdoms, and galloped away.

From this moment on, the Battle of King's Landing officially came to an extremely imperfect end.

This battle started with Robert Baratheon's "son" Joffrey Baratheon ascending the throne and ended with Renly Baratheon's withdrawal from King's Landing.

The three kings of Westeros, with a total of more than 13 troops, fought one after another bloody offensive and defensive battles for the city.

Later, when the new king who unified the Seven Kingdoms summed up this period of history and counted the number of casualties that year, he knew the cruelty of this battle.

On both sides, a total of close to 4 people died directly or indirectly on the battlefield, and uncountable soldiers were devoured by the hungry citizens in King's Landing.

There was no winner in this battle, even after the battle ended, Stannis Baratheon, who was temporarily sitting on the Iron Throne, lost his heir, and his rule quickly fell apart after a series of events.

And he also became the second crown to land after Robb Stark in this "War of the Five Kings".

Sitting on the throne, but no one worships.

The decree is not allowed to go thirty miles outside the city of King's Landing.

But in any case, Stannis is much stronger than Robb Stark, his brother Renly Baratheon.

At least, he's sitting on the Iron Throne of his dreams.

Even if it is not recognized by the throne, it will be dripping with blood.

But it was worth it, after all, after he lost his daughter and couldn't surrender to Targaryen anyway, the rest of his life was just this cold, sinful throne.

Everyone has aspirations.

No?
